Why is my measured leakage current of the capacitors much lower than my calculated value?

This is more a theoretical question. I have a DC circuit with multiple capacitors with different voltages. Because I need to know how much current my circuit needs over a longer time, I calculated all …

Decoupling Capacitor on GPIO instead of connected directly to battery

I am building a device that is for most of the time in sleep mode. When woken up, I am sending some BLE signals and use a LED. To support the battery I have a 2u2F capacitor. But because my battery is …

Use a MOSFET to switch on/off power supply for a low power microcontroller

I am trying to develop a circuit that can switch on and off the power supply for a microcontroller. I have around 0.2 - 0.7 V which I can generate to control the electronic switch. My idea was to use …

Use a MOSFET to switch on/off power supply for a low power microcontroller

Thank guys. So I did a new simulation, based on your answers: v_photodiode is my photodiode which is giving pulses of 0.7V for around 3 seconds. It looks already better now :) The problem now is that …
